Lyrics

Boom (Demo)

[Verse 1: Serj Tankian]

I've been walking through your streets

Where all your money's earning

Where all your buildings crying and clueless neckties working

Revolving fake lawn houses, housing all your fears

Desensitized by TV

Overbearing advertising, God of consumers

And all your crooked pictures looking good, mirrors

Filtering information through the public eye

Designed for profit sharing, your neighbor, what a guy

[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every time you drop the bomb

You kill the god your child has born

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

[Verse 2: Serj Tankian]

Modern globalization, coupled with condemnations

Unnecessary death, matador corporations

Puppeting your frustrations with a blinded flag

Manufacturing consent is the name of the game

The bottom line is money, nobody gives a fuck (Overbearing advertising)

4000 hungry children leave us per hour

From starvation (Consumerism, mirrorism)

(Nanana na na nana

Nanana na na nana)

While billions are spent on bombs, creating death showers

(Desensitized by TV)

(All throughout the years)

[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every time you drop the bomb

You kill the god your child has born

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

[Bridge: Serj Tankian]

Why must we kill our own kind?

[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every time you drop the bomb

You kill the god your child has born

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every time you drop the bomb
